148. Yes. A former co-worker.
He was in a wheelchair and his lovely family always came at the beginning and end of his shift to get him settled in, and then ready to go. He is an incredible person, a gifted editor, and knows every college's nickname you could name. (During down periods we used to quiz him.) When I left the job he was beginning to show signs of post polio syndrome, and his health was not good. If memory serves, he was having to cut back on his hours.

It's been more than 20 years since I last saw him, and I do think of him from time to time and wonder how he's doing.
